The Polygon network is powered by MATIC – an Ethereum token. Polygon (MATIC) is also a protocol to connect and build blockchain networks that are Ethereum-compatible. Polygon (MATIC) is an easy-to-use platform, ideal for infrastructure development and Ethereum scaling.

Polygon (MATIC) transforms Ethereum into a multi-chain system that is similar to other tokens. Polygon (MATIC) is a layer 2 scaling solution and seeks to help with mass crypto adoption by resolving scalability issues.
